It's amazing how things can snowball when life acts up. We're catching up from the aftermath of Lulu's death. Yeah, I'm a sap, but there's just big hole in the house now. The boys (our other cats) are now realizing how much Lulu "took for the team" in terms of being the recipient of my 3-year-old daughter's attentions. The kid's also learning that the boys have their own opinions about being a rag doll. We're all learning to live without our "just chill out and snuggle" cat.
I let the vet send Lulu's remains over to the vet school for the students to examine and got a call back on the results. She had thrown a large clot and had several more in her heart. Even if we managed to clear the one clot, there were others waiting in the wings. The poor thing had been our bad health karma kitty, so I'm not surprised. If the clot had gone another direction, it could have easily been a stroke.
